Jaw-Dropping Son-in-Law

“I'm sorry!” Ye Fan said politely while saluting the eighteen elders.

Although he held a grudge against the Chu Sect, he didn't hate everyone in it.

At the very least, he didn't hate the elders standing before him.

Ye Fan had once entered the Treasure Pavilion by accident many years ago.

The Chu family had nearly beaten him to death when they had caught him doing so.

As the eighteen elders had taken pity on him, they had helped reduce his suffering by defending him verbally.

The elders wiped the blood off the corners of their mouths as they returned to their seats.

However, they no longer maintained that icy-cold attitude toward Ye Fan. Instead, their faces were filled with shame and respect.

“Hey, kid! If I'm not mistaken, you're not from the Chu Sect, are you? Judging by your age, I don't think you're even thirty! Am I right?” asked the eldest and most powerful of the eighteen elders.

Ye Fan simply nodded without saying anything.

The elders felt even more ashamed when they saw that.

“We have not stepped out of Chu Sect's forbidden grounds for dozens of years. Who would've thought a young and talented man as you existed in the martial arts world? If this is the level of skill you possess at such a young age, one can only imagine how terrifyingly powerful you could become in the future. Would you be so kind as to tell us your name? You are the first person to have faced our Inescapable Chain Formation head-on and broken through it.”

Those in the martial arts world had lots of respect for powerful martial artists.

Ye Fan's strength and skill had impressed them to the core.
